Another button related questions, my Canon a590is with chdk has a great function in playback mode. Zoomable zebra mode when half press shutter button (live histogram set to "shoot" and zebra enabled).

This funtcion cannot acces in my SX110is, when i half press shutter button, camera switch to record mode. Playback zebra mode configurable to another button, for example "face button" in future?

Chdk default settings switchable to sort power button => record mode?

No. This has been discussed many times.

The problem is that at start-up, CHDK does not know if it was started via the playback button or the power button. (Unless you hold the power button down as described above). If CHDK were to always power up in shooting mode, the lens will extend every time, which could result in mechanical damage if you were pressing the playback button and not expecting it.

Thanks for the detailed answer, mechanical damage not good. Default option good for me.
